Albert | Rogell directed the picture, which | was produced for First National by Charles R. Rogers. | In the cast also, are Alec B.! Francis, who plays the title role; Matthew Betz, as the villain; dnd Romaine Ficlding, Otis Harlan, Jo- seph Bennett, Maurice Murphy, | Carl Stockdalé, Marion Douglas, John Westwood and other notable artists. They give exceedingly human characterizations, and the plot is packed with drama and sus- pense. Molly O'Day, who played oppo- site Richard Barthelmess in “The Patent Leather Kid,” and Milton Sills in “Hard-Boiléd Haggerty,” demonstrates her real attractive- ness and ability in the role of the little Ozark girl. INGING A TRIUMPH | [~ JoLsON'S | FOOL,” [ ‘A “'fémarkable demorstraifon of the emotional power of Al Jolson is furnished in “The Singing Fool,” the new special production in which he is présentéd by Warner Bros., and now at the Coliseum. Though Jolson's stormily dra- mitic rendition of popular ballads Has undoubtedly been an important fastor in causing thé public to ac- claim hini as the ‘world'd favorite enterfainer, he has always been considered first and foremost as 2 comedian. And yet, “The Singing Fool” is not a comedy—having few comedy momients—énd no element of com- cdy detion whatever. It is a drama of the most intense pathos—a mov- ing story of the utmost emotional depth, in which Al, though ga} and light-hearted in the begin- ning, is brought at length to the depths of despair. Jolson’s suppofting cast includes two leading ladies in the persons of Betty Bronson and Josephine Dunn, and other prominent roles are played by Reed Howes, Arthur Housman, David Lee, Edward Mar- tindel and Robert Emmett O'Con- nor. The screen story was writ- ten by C. Graham Baker from the play by Leslie S. Barrows. — e ""JOHNNY HINES IS AT PALACE SUNDAY | e R e P hou of the most exciting se? quences in Johnny Hines' latest First National pieture, “The Wright Idea,” at the Palace Sunday, takes place on a large yacht cruising fa® 1 { \ he got from ardent | .. | women when his wife left him.

When the outlaw league blew up in 1915 Quinn headed westward and joined the Vernon club of the Pa- cific coast league. He was there in 1916, 1917 and part of 1918, go- ing to the White Sox when the coast loop suspended because of the war. " Jack finished the season there land next year found himself the center of an argument between the Whits Sox and the Yankees. He was awarded to the latter and re- mained with that club through 1921.
